We tried a Sunday carvery at a local Greene King pub - here's what we made of it

Britain's love affair with the humble Sunday roast dinner has been celebrated for centuries, with origins of the traditional meal being traced back to the 15th century. During the reign of King Henry VII, royal guards would participate in a ritual of feasting upon freshly roasted beef each Sunday - which is funnily enough where the term 'Beefeaters' comes from.

And as the years of passed, more and more items have been thrown into the mix including controversial Yorkshire puddings. And whether you believe Yorkies belong on a plate or in the bin, we can all agree that there's nothing better than sitting round your nan's on a weekend and tucking into a Sunday lunch.

However, other parties choose to eat out on Sundays. One kitchen which has became a popular hot-spot of a Sunday is none other than Wearside Farm in Washington, which is ran by Greene King under the Farmhouse Inns moniker.
